Congenital malaria isn’t common even though malaria is endemic in India. Here, we will be reporting about a neonate of age seven days with splenomegaly and fever diagnosed as congenital malaria. On smear study it was found to have malarial parasite incidentally. In a case of neonatal sepsis congenital malaria can be suspected. Early diagnosis and treatment is thus important in preventing neonatal mortality.
